(1) Data includes clients formerly in receipt of preserved rights.
(2) Guidance was restated in 2004-05. Figures from previous years are not comparable.
(3) Missing data.
Notes:
1. The England and regional totals are estimates based on the figures from 150 P1 proformas.
2. Figures may not add up because of rounding.
3. Regional and national totals may not be equal to the sum of the council level figures due to the use of estimates when the council did not fully complete the return.
4. All figures presented are rounded to the nearest 10, 100 or 1,000. The precise rounding rules are:
For national and regional totals:
Data: Rounding rule
Over 10,000: Rounding to nearest 1,000
Between 100 and 10,000: Rounded to nearest 100
Under 50: Rounded to nearest 10.
5. There are some issues to be aware of when comparing the data over time:
Since 2002-03, clients who were formally in receipt of higher rates of income support under the Department for Work and Pensions preserved rights scheme and who transferred to council support on 8 April 2002 have been included in the referrals, assessments and packages of care return. Clients that were in receipt of preserved rights but who were already being partially supported by councils were previously included in the data and are not considered as clients formerly in receipt of preserved rights. This mainly effects clients in residential care.
Guidance relating to clients receiving services was restated for 2004-05 to only include clients who are assessed by social services and have a care plan. In previous years, some councils included clients receiving services from grant-funded organisations without a community care assessment and therefore the 2004-05 data is not comparable to previous years. Additional clarification was also given on the recording of some types of services. These amendments mainly affect clients receiving communitybased services.
